Crippling student loans or medical bankruptcy does not exist in UK or any other European country, so that's a pretty bad comparison.

I was not referring to just payday loans.

It’s terrifying how many Europeans come out and defend payday loans and pretend their system where it’s more difficult to declare bankruptcy is somehow better than the US debt system.
